About Us

Helm of Sun Valley has been in business in San Mateo for more then 50 years. There aren't a whole lot of businesses that can say that and we're proud of it. The cornerstone of our ski business is boot fitting. Most of our boot fitters have over 10 years of experience and Gary, the owner, has over 30 years of experience. We know how to fit boots plus we do all kinds of custom fitting. All of our employees participate in the sports that we sell and we feel it is very important to know what we are taking about. We strive to have insightful knowledge about the sports we sell, cutting through the all the rhetoric and getting down to the nitty gritty.
